Mayor Lightfoot: ‘What the Chicago Teachers Union Did Was an Illegal Walkout’

‘They abandoned their posts and abandoned kids and their families’

RUSH EXCERPT:
LIGHTFOOT: "To be clear, what the Chicago teachers union did was an illegal walkout. They abandoned their posts and abandoned kids and their families. We’re working diligently every single day at the bargaining table to narrow the differences and get a deal done. Our team has been working every single day. They’re back at it again here Sunday. They were at it yesterday. We can get a deal done if there’s good will on both sides.”
